 New Research Answers Question: How Many LGBT People Are There In The United States?
Williams Institute's Analysis, Based On Results From Six Surveys, Estimates LGBT Population At 9 Million Americans The Williams Institute, a leading think tank dedicated to the field of sexual orientation and gender identity-related law and public policy, released new research that estimates the size of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community in the United States. Drawing on information from four recent national and two state-level population-based surveys, the analyses suggest that there are more than 8 million adults in the US who are lesbian, gay, or bisexual, comprising 3.5% of the adult population. There are also nearly 700,000 transgender individuals in the US. In total, the study suggests that approximately 9 million Americans - roughly the population of New Jersey - identify as LGBT. The study was released coinciding with the Institute's 10th anniversary, to be honored at UCLA Law School from April 7-9. It can be viewed online at: http://www2.law.ucla.edu/williamsinstitute |

Out Magazine Presents the 5th Annual Power 50
50 most powerful gay men and women in America
In times of upheaval, power changes hands fast. It's no surprise, then, that two of the top 10 names on Out magazine's 5th annual Power 50 list are new entries. Or that one of those two newbies - Apple's Tim Cook - shot to the top of the list. Television and the Internet remain fertile ground for LGBT talent and power to flourish, with five more of the top 10 coming from talk shows, news programs, or tablet launches. As always, the positions were determined by a range of factors, including power to influence cultural and social attitudes, political clout, individual wealth, and a person's media profile. |
